Chapter 30

?After nightfall, the Xuanlou is full of singing and dancing. The lights in the building are like stars on the night, illuminating the night a little bit; Hangzhou is a must, and those who have heard it will never forget it.

However, the people standing outside the Xuan Building did not listen to Mr. Zhang's zither. He heard the sound of the flute slowly sounding in his heart, and his eyes fell on the black shadow on the window paper upstairs. The black shadow overlapped with the posture of the person playing the flute that day.

Song Leyu outside the door put on a pretty smile, and strode into this long-lost place of fireworks.

As soon as he stepped into Xuanlou, a young man in Tsing Yi greeted him with a plate of pastries with a smile on his face.

Song Leyu thought the pastry in the man's hand was a treat for him, and was about to praise Xuanlou for his greetings, when the man stretched out his slender fingers, carefully picked up a piece of pastry, and ate it into his mouth carefully, carefully Chewing up.He had no choice but to follow the man's chewing movements, swallowing his admiration for Xuanlou back into his stomach.

This man was dressed plainly, he didn't look like a son in the building, he was probably just a servant.However, it's really hard to say that a young servant has such a superior face.

He has a pair of lively eyes, a high nose and plump lips, and his wheat-colored skin makes him look healthy, and he doesn't look like a person in a brothel at all.

He swallowed the pastry in his mouth, and asked casually: "This young master has been staring at me, could it be that he has taken a fancy to me?"

"Are you the young lady in the building?" Song Leyu asked back in a good mood, but the man gave him a blank stare.

"Do I look like it? I just don't think I look like it..." He measured his height, which is half a head taller than Song Leyu, and said sarcastically, "Although Xuanlou is a performer, there is no one If you are interested, point me to this "Thank you, right?"

Having said that, he usually does not speak ill of guests, but he is in a bad mood today because he was late returning to the building, so the lunch was swept away by the hungry ghosts in the building, and now he can only rely on these few dollars to eat. The pastries that can't warm up the stomach are used to pad the stomach, and Song Leyu looks like a bully, so he borrowed him to vent.

Song Leyu shrugged indifferently, he never cared about these trivial matters, and this man was also considered interesting, so it would be nice to come over to chat with him in the future to kill time.

But he came here tonight because he had something more important to do.

He smiled and asked: "Do you have a son named Chen Pu here? If I want to invite him to appear..."

The man in front of him immediately lowered his face and said angrily, "No, you can invite me back."

"but he……"

"If you want to find someone, go to other places. If I say there is no one here, then there is none!" He said angrily, not knowing why Chen Pu would provoke such a prodigal son.

"Ziyu! Who told you to be so presumptuous to your guests?" A cold and stern voice came from behind Song Leyu. The man in front of him immediately turned his head away and stopped talking. Song Leyu clearly saw Yao Ziyu's face flushed with anger. Face.

He knew he was lying, the reason for lying was obvious, he was protecting Chen Pu.

The speaker walked up to Song Leyu, his indifferent face was completely different from Yao Ziyu's healthy, but Song Leyu had to admit that this person was also very good-looking.

Just seeing the two people in the building, he understood the reason why Xuanlou was full of seats.

"Mr. Song, it is Xuanlou's blessing to have you here." Sun Ao said compliments, but his tone was too cold, and there was no taste of flattery at all, but he stared at Song Leyu's eyes, adding a smile to his face. A trace of temperature.

"I'm here to find someone..."

"I know." He nodded slightly, and then said: "I am the landlord here, Sun Ao."

Yao Ziyu on the side widened his eyes when he saw Sun Ao's actions, and didn't understand why Sun Ao would take the initiative to show his favor to Song Leyu.Sun Ao has never been a person who bends his waist for money, and he loves Chen Pu the most, how could he reveal Chen Pu's whereabouts to this stranger?

"Lord Sun, I know that Chen Pu is here. If he has something important to do, just tell him, Song Leyu." He doesn't like to do things that are forced, so he doesn't have to meet Chen Pu. Anyway, the future will be long, If they are destined, they will meet again one day.

"Who told you that Chen Pu is the son of our building?" He asked without responding to Song Leyu's words.

"Of course he told me."

After getting Song Leyu's answer, Sun Ao only frowned inward, without much reaction.

He asked Yao Ziyu to take Song Leyu to sit in the side hall, while he turned around and walked to Chen Pu's wing.

At this time, Chen Pu was listening to the sound of the zither downstairs, imagining the appearance of Mr. Zhang playing the zither. When he came to Xuanlou three years ago, he was frowning. It was Mr. Zhang who played the zither for him, which made him feel that this Xuanlou , is not what he imagined, allowing him to stay with peace of mind.

Although Mr. Zhang is no longer willing to play the zither in front of him in recent years, his life here is still very comfortable, and occasionally listening to his zither upstairs is a pleasure.

With a bang, the sound of the zither stopped abruptly, and he pushed open the door of the wing room with both hands. Chen Pu looked back, and it was Sun Ao who came.

"Brother, why are you here?" He looked at Sun Ao in surprise, because at this time, he should be downstairs dealing with matters in the building.

"Someone is coming for you."

"Who?" This made him even more surprised. Although he had stayed in Yangzhou for three years, he seldom went out on weekdays, so he probably would not have met anyone.

Suddenly, his heart beat wildly, who is it?He seemed to hope that someone would come to find him, but he was also afraid that that person would know his whereabouts.

--is it you?Huai Jun?I have been away for three years, are you still persevering in pursuing my whereabouts?But what if you found me?What can you and I do?Unless you are willing to abandon everything in the palace.But all of this is impossible, think about your princess, think about your little son, think about the throne within your reach, it is impossible for you to give up everything and choose me.

He struggled for an answer, and Sun Ao said the answer in a cold voice: "Song Leyu."

These three words calmed his frantic heart, but it was like a pot of cold water that extinguished his frenzied fire. It was Song Leyu, not Wu Huaijun.

He did feel an indescribable disappointment, but after the disappointment, there was an unexpected sense of peace of mind. He escaped and exchanged himself for a brand new life. Why should he expect Huaijun to appear?

"Where is he? I'll go see him." Chen Pu smiled.

The so-called friends come from afar, it is such a pleasure, it is rare for him to make a friend, how can he keep him waiting for so long?

Seeing Chen Pu's reaction, he knew that what Song Leyu said was true, and the two of them really knew each other.Sun Ao did not interfere with Chen Pu's making friends. He always thought that Chen Pu should get to know a few more people, so that the wound in his heart could be healed.

"Since you know each other, I'll bring him here later." When facing Chen Pu, Sun Ao's indifferent eyes always had a hint of warmth, and he whispered, "Pu'er, you came here for this Big Thousand Worlds. Since this is the case, don’t be trapped in Xuanlou anymore, the world outside is huge, and you can meet many people, you have to really step out.”

Although Chen Pu didn't say anything, Sun Ao knew that he regarded Xuanlou as a refuge. He thought that at Chen Pu's age, he should travel around and see the world, so he would suddenly realize that young love is not so important.

Chen Pu was silent for a while, thinking, maybe he was still holding on to the hem of his clothes, because Huai Jun, because of the gangster who injured him that day, so he was trapped in Xuanlou, thinking that Xuanlou was the best place to live place.

From now on, he should let go of that hem.

After a long time, he grinned and said, "Brother, I understand what you said."

"I'll ask Ziyu to bring him here, don't go downstairs."

"Brother wants me to step out of this world, but he doesn't let me go downstairs to see and see." Chen Pu joked, but Sun Ao responded to him with a serious face: "The brothel is not a good place." His His face seemed to be gloomy, but before Chen Pu could see clearly, he closed the door and left.

At this time, the sky is getting darker, and ordinary people are already sound asleep, but Xuanlou is getting more and more romantic as the night goes by.Mr. Zhang's zither sound has been withdrawn, and the servants have been serving wine for a few more rounds.After going downstairs, Sun Ao turned a few corners and came to a relatively quiet side hall, intending to take Song Leyu to Chen Pu's wing.

However, when his eyes fell on the people drinking inside, his calm heart became more unsteady.

There are two people in the side hall, one is Yao Ziyu and the other is Song Leyu.

Because Song Leyu mistook Chen Pu as the son here, Yao Ziyu hated him from the bottom of his heart, and stared at Song Leyu with hatred in his eyes. People who didn't know the inside story thought that Song Leyu had done something heinous to him.

However, Song Leyu has always been used to ignoring people's gazes, how could a mere Yao Ziyu hinder his interest in drinking?Speaking of which, Xuanlou's wine is also unusual, it's so sweet that one can drink it again and again.

With his slender fingers, he raised another glass of wine and poured it down.

And Sun Ao stared at Song Leyu at this time, and many past events came to his mind.

Young Master Song was born in a family that everyone dreamed of. He was only ten years old when he met Song Leyu. In the blink of an eye, he became this handsome young man in 13 years. Sun Ao recognized him, but he would not recognize Sun Ao.

Everyone has an unbearable past event in his heart, but this unbearable recall is the most unforgettable, so he never thought of forgetting, but instead swallowed these past events forcefully, forcing himself to face them squarely.But everything that happened 13 years ago was a chaotic matter that would never be cleared up. He was not afraid of meeting anyone, but some people would inevitably feel sad when they saw it.

Song Leyu was not that person, but it was he who forcibly brought those flattened past events before his eyes, which reminded him of that person.

Maybe everyone thinks he is indifferent, but few people understand his once violent heart, and there are only two people in the world who understand how his violent heart was cooled down.

He turned around and left the side hall, grabbed a servant and asked him to take Song Leyu to see Chen Pu.

Knowing that Chen Pu was willing to see him, Song Leyu was naturally overjoyed, immediately put down the wine glass in his hand, and followed the servant upstairs, leaving Yao Ziyu staring at his retreating back with gritted teeth.

The servant brought Song Leyu to Chen Pu's wing, and hurried downstairs, he still had a lot of work to do.Before leaving, Song Leyu took out an ingot of silver from his pocket and put it in his hand.

As if getting the money for the first time, the boy put it in his arms carefully, unexpectedly, the fortune will come as soon as it is said.

Song Leyu didn't knock on the door, just opened it with a smile and walked in.

This wing room was not big, just placed a bed and a round table in front of the bed, his eyes easily fell on Chen Pu's back, he walked forward and hugged Chen Pu from behind.

Chen Pu pushed away the people behind him in surprise, and looked back, only to see Song Leyu looking at him disappointedly: "I didn't expect it to be so difficult to meet the son of Xuanlou, but I can't hug him when I see him..." Speaking of this, his smile From the disappointed expression, he knew from the servant just now that Chen Pu was not a son at all, no wonder Yao Ziyu looked at him with such hatred.

He laughed and said, "A Pu, you lied to me and caused me to be misunderstood."

His smile and words calmed Chen Pu's flustered heart, and he retorted, "When did I lie to you?"

"You said you were from Xuanlou!" Song Leyu casually sat beside Chen Pu, intending to pour himself a glass of wine, but what Yan poured out was thick yellow tea.

He never liked to drink tea, thinking that his good childhood was ruined by tea, but sitting in other people's room, he didn't like to have seizures, so he had to drink tea.

But when he drank the tea, it turned out to be the familiar taste from his childhood, he frowned and kept the tea away.

"Le Yu's words are not good." Chen Pu shook his head, and slowly pointed out that Song Leyu's words were not good: "It was Baoer who said that we are from Xuanlou, and we are indeed from Xuanlou, otherwise you Why did I meet in Xuanlou? But I never said that I am the son of the building, so it seems that Le Yu has malicious intentions."

Song Leyu was speechless, and then let out a series of laughter, "It's true that I was wrong, it was all my misunderstanding, I misunderstood."

"Who has no faults? Le Yu doesn't have to take it to heart." Chen Pu jokingly said, under Song Leyu's smile, he felt relaxed unconsciously.

"A Pu is indeed a straightforward person!"

Chen Pu smiled without saying a word, raised the white jade pot, and poured himself another cup of tea.

He seldom drinks alcohol, and the tea in the room is mostly tea, and he thinks the tea in Xuanlou has a special flavor, which is better than the one made by Nuoxu back then.He once asked Sun Ao what kind of tea it was, but Sun Ao never answered.

And Yao Ziyu, who grew up here, said this-the owner must have drugged it, and those who have drunk it can't help but praise it.

Of course, Yao Ziyu is also included in this praise. Although he is a glutton, he still has a set of standards for eating.

He took a sip of the tea, bitterness welled up in his mouth, it was a very strong bitterness, but this bitterness didn't stay for too long, instead it faded into fresh sweetness, and the change made the sweetness even sweeter.

So in the later days, he finally understood what Sun Ao often said: "Drinking tea is drinking life's various states." Because of the bitterness of this cup of tea, people cherish the sweetness afterward, and this cup of tea is also difficult. The bitterness gave people a hope.

He put down the cup in his hand and saw Song Leyu staring at him intently with a smile out of the corner of his eye, which made him suddenly feel at a loss.

Song Leyu's eyes were not complicated, just like Huai Jun's innocence when he looked at him that day, but it made him feel even more embarrassed because of this, he was afraid that Song Leyu would have some feelings for him by mistake.

Not long after, Chen Pu couldn't stand the atmosphere, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "I never knew I was so good-looking."

"Hasn't anyone told you that? You really look good." Song Leyu said frankly, "Especially when you smile."

"Le Yu, you don't have to say these compliments when you're a friend." Pointing to the scar on his chin, he rejected his compliments.

Unexpectedly, Song Leyu just glanced at it, and said indifferently: "It's not a problem. A Pu, you are beautiful because of your eyes." He looked into Chen Pu's clear eyes, and the sense of familiarity came to him again. Can't help but ask again: "I recognize your eyes, have we met before?"

"No, if there is, I won't lose my impression." Chen Pu was a little annoyed, and his tone was stiffer than before.

However, Song Leyu still sensed the faint trace of anger. He knew that what he just said had offended Chen Pu, so he hurriedly said, "I am quite straightforward in front of my friends. A Pu, I have no malice."

There was a night breeze blowing outside the window following Song Leyu's words, blowing away the scruples and worries in Chen Pu's heart.

It sounds like he was overthinking, since Song Leyu called himself a friend, he didn't have to think too much, it's not honorable to speculate that a man has ulterior motives for him, maybe he really was overthinking.

His tensed shoulders slowly relaxed, and he took a sip of tea to calm himself down before responding, "I'm the one who got excited."

"No, no, I offended." He thought that Chen Pu was angry because he was obsessed with the scar on his chin, and he talked about his face. Although he praised his good looks with good intentions, it sounded a little bit It's ironic.

Suddenly fear poured into his chest, as if blocking his breathing.

He was afraid that Chen Pu would be angry, but he didn't expect that he would be afraid of losing his friend when facing this person whom he had only met twice!This feeling is a combination of his familiarity with him and his eagerness to befriend him, but he is sure that there is no other relationship between him and him, and even if there is, it is too late.

"It's me..." Chen Pu said with a straight face, but he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth after he said two words. To make friends, you should trust each other.

Chen Pu felt relieved when he thought of this, and his tone became even more relaxed: "Let's not get entangled in this matter anymore, you and I seem to be a large number of people, and these trivial things don't need to be remembered."

"Okay! It's rare that Apu has such a large amount, so Le Yu replaced the wine with tea and punished himself with a cup!" He took the teacup that he pushed away just now, and took a bold sip, but just after the tea was imported, he coughed violently , His face also became red.

The taste of this cup of tea was like a nightmare he had in the middle of the night, I really don't know how Chen Pu drank it, just this one sip already made him very uncomfortable.

"You don't have to drink in such a hurry."

Seeing Song Leyu choking on the tea and coughing violently, Chen Pu couldn't stop laughing from his lips.

Song Leyu caressed her heaving chest, and when she calmed down, she wiped her lips with the back of her hand, and said with a smile: "I never thought that I would be embarrassed in front of you the second time we meet, but it is a good thing to be able to make you smile."

"You have a nice mouth."

"Many people praise me like this, how about it? Did you find out that making me a friend is not a bad relationship?"

"Why do you still remember what you said to decline you a month ago?"

"Of course you have to remember it all the time, so that you will feel guilty." Song Leyu said with a bitterly handsome face, "You almost lost my good friend."

"Good friend? It's not clear whether it's a blessing or a disaster..."

The lights here flickered all night, and laughter kept flowing from inside, which was completely different from the desertedness of the past.

There was a person outside the door staring lonely at the two black figures sitting side by side on the door paper, and took a bite of the snack in his hand.
